It was damn pretty; exteriors, interiors, and nature. And the combat mechanics were fun and well done, imho.

I don't really care enough about the HP universe to care about whomping willows, broom flying, school rules, or that a 3rd grader shouldn't really be able to murder an entire army of bandits, smugglers, goblins, and local magical aggressive fauna in a single school year.

it's not so much about caring about Harry Potter, it's more that exploring didn't feel rewarding or worthwhile. it only seemed like it would be interesting if you DID care about the lore enough just to want to see it.

I might just be into the cottage core aesthetics probably, maybe thats the reason I loved exploring every part of that world.
